Economist editors John Micklethwait and Adrian Wooldridge reveal the company to be one of history's great catalysts, for good
and for ill, a mighty engine for sucking in, recombining, and pumping out money, goods, people, and culture to every corner
of the globe. What other earthly invention has the power to grow to any size, and to live to any age? What else could have
given us both the stock market and the British Empire? The company man, the company town, and company time? Disneyfication
and McDonald'sization, to say nothing of Coca-colonialism? Through its many mutations, the company has always incited controversy,
and governments have always fought to rein it in. Today, though Marx may spin in his grave and anarchists riot in the streets,
the company exercises an unparalleled influence on the globe, and understanding what this creature is and where it comes from
has never been a more pressing matter

Two renowned British America-watchers anatomize the conservative movement and explain how it has stamped its program so deeply
into American life. This book is for anyone who wants to understand one of the most important forces shaping American life.
How did America's government become so much more conservative in just a generation? Welfare is gone; the death penalty is
deeply rooted; abortion is under siege; regulations are being rolled back; the pillars of New Deal liberalism are turning
to sand. Conservative positions have not prevailed everywhere, of course, but this book shows us why they've been so successfully
advanced over such a broad front: because the battle has been waged by well-organized, shrewd, and committed troops who to
some extent have been lucky in their enemies. The authors come neither to bury the American conservative movement nor to praise
it blindly but to understand it, in all its dimensions.--From publisher description

On the street and in the corridors of power, religion is surging worldwide. From Russia to Turkey to India, nations that swore
off faith in the last century--or even tried to stamp it out--are now run by avowedly religious leaders. This book examines
this new world, from exorcisms in São Paulo to religious skirmishing in Nigeria, to televangelism in California and house
churches in China. Since the Enlightenment, intellectuals have assumed that modernization would kill religion--and that religious
America is an oddity. As these authors argue, religion and modernity can thrive together, and America is becoming the norm.
The failure of communism and the rise of globalism helped spark the global revival, but, above all, 21st century religion
is being fueled by a very American emphasis on competition and a customer-driven approach to salvation, and its destabilizing
effects can already be seen far from Iraq or the World Trade Center.--From publisher description

"From the bestselling authors of The Right Nation, a visionary argument that our current crisis in government is nothing less
than the fourth radical transition in the history of the nation-state. Dysfunctional government: It's become a cliche. And
most of us are resigned to the fact that nothing is ever going to change. As John Micklethwait and Adrian Wooldridge show
us, that is a seriously limited view of things. In fact, there have been three great revolutions in government in the history
of the modern world. The West has led these revolutions, but now we are in the midst of a fourth revolution, and it is Western
government that is in danger of being left behind. Now, things really are different. The West's debt load is unsustainable.
The developing world has harvested the low-hanging fruits. Industrialization has transformed all the peasant economies it
had left to transform, and the toxic side effects of rapid developing world growth are adding to the bill. From Washington
to Detroit, from Brasilia to New Delhi, there is a dual crisis of political legitimacy and political effectiveness. The Fourth
Revolution crystallizes the scope of the crisis and points forward to our future. The authors enjoy extraordinary access to
influential figures and forces the world over, and the book is a global tour of the innovators in how power is to be wielded.
The age of big government is over; the age of smart government has begun. Many of the ideas the authors discuss seem outlandish
now, but the center of gravity is moving quickly. This tour drives home a powerful argument: that countries' success depends
overwhelmingly on their ability to reinvent the state. And that much of the West--and particularly the United States--is failing
badly in its task. China is making rapid progress with government reform at the same time as America is falling badly behind.
Washington is gridlocked, and America is in danger of squandering its huge advantages from its powerful economy because of
failing government. And flailing democracies like India look enviously at China's state-of-the-art airports and expanding
universities. The race to get government right is not just a race of efficiency. It is a race to see which political values
will triumph in the twenty-first century--the liberal values of democracy and liberty or the authoritarian values of command
and control. The stakes could not be higher"--

This is a portrait of America that few outsiders understand - the America that votes for George Bush, that supports the death
penalty and gun rights, that believes in minimal government and long prison sentences, that pulled out of the Kyoto Protocol.
The authors drive to the question: why does America seem so different?

"On the street and in the corridors of power, religion is surging worldwide. From Russia to Turkey to India, nations that
swore off faith in the last century-or even tried to stamp it out-are now run by avowedly religious leaders. Since the Enlightenment,
intellectuals have assumed that modernisation would kill religion - and that religious America is an oddity. Many things helped
spark the global revival of religion, including the failure of communism and the rise of globalism. But, above all, twenty-first
century religion is being fueled by a very American emphasis on competition and a customer-driven approach to salvation. These
qualities have characterized this country's faith ever since the Founders separated church and state, creating a religious
free market defined by entrepreneurship, choice, and personal revelation. Religion plays a role in civil wars from Sri Lanka
to Sudan. Along the tenth parallel, from West Africa to the Philippines, religious fervour and political unrest are reinforcing
each other."--Publisher description
